When learning a language, fluency is most easily achieved by hearing sounds, figuring out their meanings, and using them. StoryBridges offers a fresh approach to teaching a language through familiar children's stories. An English narrative is combined with the German audio, text, and storybook illustrations with German dialogue — drawn by real children! The stories feature professional storytelling by Veronica Foster with Sadie and Sydney, plus soft guitar background music.

Through activities encouraging both independent and collaborative study, children soon become enthusiastic participants by playing games, telling stories, singing songs, taking tests, and illustrating vocabulary — all in German!

Includes 6 storybook units:* The Three Bears* Little Red Riding Hood* The Turtle's Music* The Nightingale* The Shoemakers (and the Elves)* Peter and the Wolf

"Your unique program allows students to become active participants in their learning of another language. The many activities, songs, and games that you offer are truly a boon to educators who want to engage their students in a meaningful way."Aileen Dever, PhD, Vice-President, CT AATSP

"StoryBridges is very good for homeschoolers. The Three Bears is a familiar story to everybody and so Los Tres Osos was easy for my children to follow."Barbara Kohler, Homeschooler Parent
